smells like a fresh olive oil , i was hoping they are asking for durand de la penne as bonus instead
What else you can expect ? This double tap is already breaking the record

There are 4 of those old frigates, Indonesia should have pushed for all 4 to stop gap and keep the crews trained until the FREMMs arrive.What else you can expect ? This double tap is already breaking the record

Niceeeee....Alhamdulillah..
Pleasant surprise to see we put quite big order at once instead of buying "ketengan". Wonder how much is the contract value, considering Egypt contract for 2 FREMM is valued at Euro 1.2 bio. I guess our contract could be worth around Euro 3.6 bio + modernization of Maestrale....+/- Euro 4 to 4,5 Bio..? Any guess..??
Also surprising is that MoD/TNI AL finally decided to go with CODAG propulsion frigate, as I understand from conversation in this forum that TNI AL has tendency to avoid Gas Turbine propulsion as they are more complicated to maintain.
-End-“The acquisition of an order of this magnitude allows Fincantieri to also assume global leadership in the surface ships sector, and is the confirmation of the technological leadership of a project once again considered the most innovative on the market which led to 20 ships for several foreign Navies, between orders and options. This program has an extraordinary strategic importance, both for the economic return for our Country and for the Italian defense supply chain, and because it ensures Fincantieri’s strong positioning in the area, paving the way for the finalization of further important negotiations for other programs already in progress also in the civil sector”.
“Finally, I want to acknowledge our Navy, which has made a decisive contribution to building together with the Country’s industry a ship that is appreciated all over the world and which fully satisfies its operational needs”.
Giuseppe Bono, CEO of Fincantieri
Considering the taste of current MoD in the office, I bet Indonesia will choose the improved and coolest variant of FREMMItaly showcased the larger 32 cells variant in fairs.
I don't think indonesia would buy 16 cells with such a large platform, considering there isn't a proper AAW asset at the moment, won't be anytime soon.
Italy was cool with 16 Cells because they have got other platforms with more VLS and used Bergamini as "General purpose frigate"

I hope it is the improved variant for Indonesia, 1x 127mm, 2x single fast forty , 1x 76 Strales is a good punch for general purposes (aka, countering swarm militias or USVs of God knows who)
